Parker Quink Ink Bottle, Black, 57 ml (1950375)

This is now my favorite fountain pen ink.I'm under the impression that it is more water based than other Inks I have used before (such as Watermans.) Because of this, I am immediately noticing improved flow and ease of writing than before. But the biggest plus is that it doesn't leave lingering stains.JUST EXTREMELY EASY CLEAN UP ON MY HANDS - WOW!!To contrast, Watermans is gorgeous ink but leaves lingering stains on skin and table that is very difficult to remove. I've also tried the "Hongdian" brand of ink which is less attractive on paper and suffers the same cleanup issue as Watermans.Very pleased with this ink and will be purchasing it regularly from now on

Not expensive. It looks very good on the paper. Quick dry.

Great just like it was descripted!!!

The ink itself is nice, flows well and all that, but this Blue Black ink is more like "Blue Blue Black." It's certainly not as dark as other blue black inks I've tried, it's more of a desaturated blue. I don't personally mind this since I got this as a everyday value ink.

It's cool to write this way!

Works very well in my Parker Jotter with a Parker converter. I really like the color, it's a much darker and more "serious" tone than the electric blue of the standard blue Parker ink. I have a second Jotter that I'm using cartridges in, but once I use up my supply of cartridges I will switch that one over to bottled ink, too.

I used my first Quink 50 years ago. Same quality as back then.

Good color
